In this powerful episode of The Mike Litton Experience, Mike sits down with entrepreneur and model manager Tina Rattigan, founder of Propel Models, to explore her incredible journey from Jamaica to building a purpose-driven modeling agency in the United States.
Tina shares her inspiring story of resilience—growing up in Jamaica, moving to the U.S. at 21, navigating cultural shifts, overcoming personal challenges, and ultimately launching Propel Models with a mission to protect, mentor, and elevate talent in the modeling industry.
After witnessing firsthand the gaps in model representation—especially through her daughter’s international modeling experience—Tina redefined what leadership in fashion should look like. Today, she leads with integrity, strong boundaries, and a deep commitment to guiding models mentally, emotionally, and professionally.
In this episode, viewers will discover:
• The power of resilience and reinvention
• Why boundaries are essential in leadership and business
• Behind-the-scenes truths about the modeling industry
• How to build a purpose-driven company from experience
• What it takes to protect and propel young talent globally
• Lessons in entrepreneurship, motherhood, and vision
Tina Rattigan is not just building a modeling agency—she’s building confidence, strength, and sustainable careers.
If you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, creative professional, model, parent, or leader, this conversation will challenge and inspire you.
